Ron Paul vs. the establishment, cont'd.

Even in an election year where Ron Paul has gotten greater traction than ever before, and even as candidates aligned with him move into Republican Party leadership roles in several states, there are frequent reminders that many of his supporters remained estranged from the GOP establishment.

The Ron Paul 2012 Presidential Campaign has fired a warning shot at the Alaska Republican Party and its longtime chairman, Randy Ruedrich, over what it perceives as unfair treatment of Paul delegates to the upcoming GOP conventions.

Ruedrich disputes the campaign's allegations and says the Alaska GOP is treating all campaigns fairly. He says the party is just trying to conduct routine business, but that "misinformation" from Paul supporters in Alaska has caused much ado about absolutely nothing.
